I have a 1995 850 Volvo. My right front head light lens is cracked. I enquired at my local Volvo dealer in Cincinnati OH regarding the cost for a new glass lens. Much to my surprise I was told Volvo only sells the entire head light

| Failing Ignition Module? | 30 Sep 2004 13:40 GMT | 13 |
My '87 740 UK spec. has started to misbehave. It can run on both LPG and petrol, and on both fuels it behaves well at low load, but under moderate acceleration there is a slight loss of top end power. Under heavy load (eg. accelerating hard or pulling up a

LH2.2 jetronic system, manual 5 speed, non turbo. I have about had it with this car. Seems at times it doesn't want to start. When it does this, the fuel pump relay doesn't "click", therefore pumps don't activate. Let it sit for awhile, perhaps it'll

The front wheel bearing on my friend's Volvo is RS. Does anybody know the bearing number so I can source one through a bearing supplier. Cheers Daryl

My car is a non-turbo '96 850 with only 52000 miles and I need to rebuilt the transmission. It is a long story but I'm 95% sure I need a new transmission. Can anyone suggest a reasonable price to pay? I got phones estimates

| looking for Volvo P1800 E or S | 29 Sep 2004 18:37 GMT | 1 |
I'm looking for a Volvo P1800 E or S that I can restore, so it certainly must not be in perfect state. So it can be almost a "wreck". Does somebody have some pointers where I can buy such a car? I would prefer to buy it somewhere in Europe since I live in Belgium. I don't

I am considering the purchase of a 2005 S80 2.5T FWD. A couple of reviews I've read say that there is a problem with a "non-linear throttle response" with this engine. Others have said that there is a "small dead spot at initial throttle application".

| Volvo 850 - gas type? | 28 Sep 2004 23:06 GMT | 32 |
Do all Volvo 850s require premium gas? As gas prices have risen plenty in the last year - I do not want to purchase a vehicle that requires premium. From the 850s on - which require stricltly premium?

| Stereo Compatibility? | 28 Sep 2004 10:11 GMT | 4 |
Someone at work is selling a Sony CDX-4050 AM/FM/CD stereo. I know that the wiring won't just plug in, but will the unit physically fit an '88 Volvo 240? I'll probably end up just running new wires to the rear shelf for 6x9 speakers, since the front speakers cut in and out at
